The public has bet the UNDER down to 29.5 (-110) after it opened @ 35.5 (-114).

Pros

  • The projections expect the Rams as the 5th-most pass-oriented offense on the slate this week with a 62.9% pass rate, given their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.
  • The leading projections forecast this game to see the 2nd-largest volume of plays run on the slate this week at 134.3 plays, accounting for the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.
  • This game will be played in a dome—which means zero wind, increased pass volume, increased TD potential, and better passing effectiveness.
  • Tyler Higbee has been used less as a potential target this year (85.5% Route% in games he has been on the field) than he did last year (69.7%).
  • Tyler Higbee has been among the leading tight ends in the pass game since the start of last season, averaging a stellar 39.0 yards per game while grading out in the 91st percentile.
Cons

  • The Rams have called the 9th-fewest plays in the league since the start of last season, totaling a measly 56.1 plays per game.
  • Opposing QBs have averaged 31.6 pass attempts per game vs. the Colts defense since the start of last season: 7th-fewest in football.
  • The Los Angeles Rams O-line grades out as the 7th-worst in football since the start of last season in protecting the quarterback, which has a negative effect on all pass attack stats across the board.
  • The Colts pass defense has performed very well when opposing TEs have gotten into space, giving up an average of 4.56 yards-after-the-catch this year: the 7th-fewest in the league.
